The Late Gov. BOdwelD.

HIS SUCCESSOR NOT VERY FRIENDLY TO PROHIBITION.
Gov. Joseph Robinson 30 iwell, Of Maine, whose
death was mentioned in yesterdays STAR, was
born IN Methuen, Mass, June Is, 1918. He worked
on a farm until 1885 for s. month, and then be
learned the shoenaker's trade, at which be worked
every evening. attending school In the daytime
In ls52 he became associated with Moses Webster
In the granite business. From this beginniug the
BOdwell Granite Co. was formed, with Mr. Bod
well as President, and the business became proba-
bly, the largest Ia this line in the country. Mr..
BOdwen then organized the HallOwell Granite Co.,
and also engaged extensively In agricultural pur-
suits. He was president OF the BOdwell Water 20.
and president or the Rapid Transit CO. between
Boston and New York. lie had served two terms
In the legislature, was twice mayor OF Hallowell
and IN 1880 was delegate-at-large 10 the Garfield
convention he was elected governor In 1856 by
The republicans.
A telegram from Hollowell, Me-, to the New York

IN January, 1883. Gov. Marble Is about sixty
three years Old, and has long been In public lire

term and United States marshal for the district OF
Maine for two terms. While not distinctly Op-
posed % the prohi0ltory law, Mr. Marble has never
been particularly active In advocating It's enforce
nent. and IL > by no means certain that the new
policy recently adopted by Gov. Bodwell for the
entOrceIneat OF iJ by special constables will be
